Episode 20: Indy Eleven Special!

Professional soccer returned to Indianapolis in 2013, with the founding of the Indy Eleven soccer club. The Indy Eleven immediately became a strong part of the Indianapolis sporting culture, selling out every game of its inaugural 2014 season at IUPUI’s Michael Carroll Stadium. After a few seasons at Lucas Oil Stadium, the Indy Eleven make a return this year to Carroll Stadium, with plans for a new Eleven Park soccer stadium in the works. This episode features conversations with two of the leaders of Indy Eleven: CEO Greg Stremlaw and Head Coach Martin Rennie. Greg Stremlaw has served as CEO of Indy Eleven since 2019, bringing an international background as former Head of Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC) Sports, overseeing programs including Hockey Night in Canada, and previously as CEO of Curling Canada. Coach Martin Rennie has led Indy Eleven on the pitch since 2018, bringing a long coaching career which includes head coaching experience in Major League Soccer (MLS) and the Korean K-League. Both Greg and Martin have become great ambassadors for Indianapolis, and I hope you enjoy the conversations.
